37. A book that uses all five vowels in the title and/or author's name

[JessicaMHR]

Just finished The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave.

It was a good book but, also slightly predictable and then also in the end not. It has a happy ending but not in the typical way, which was kind of refreshing.

[Tracy]

I'll be reading Between Two Kingdoms: A Memoir of a Life Interrupted by Suleika Jaouad. All 5 vowels in BOTH title and author's name.

[Severina]

I read The Rural Diaries: Love, Livestock, and Big Life Lessons Down on Mischief Farm by Hilarie Burton Morgan.

All 5 vowels are actually in both the author's name AND the title!

[LeahS]

I read Oh William! by Elizabeth Strout - vowels in the author's name. It's a sequel to My Name Is Lucy Barton, which would give you all five vowels in title and author's name, plus Y. You don't have to have read Lucy Barton to enjoy this book. I thought it was an excellent picture of a long term relationship and of how our childhoods continue to affect us long into adulthood.

[Tiffany]

I read Another Brooklyn by Jacqueline Woodson which gives me all 5 vowels and this time the letter "Y". Go Brooklyn!

I would recommend: The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Underground Railroad, A Tale for the Time Being, and Kindred.

[Stacey]

I loved Another Brooklyn, Tiffany. Anything connected with Brooklyn has to be good!

For romance readers, any book by Jasmine Guillory will fit the bill. I enjoyed her most recent release While We Were Dating a lot!

[Kimberly]

I’m reading The Betrayal of Anne Frank by Rosemary Sullivan.

[Anastasia]

Because You're Mine
🎧⭐⭐⭐

It is similar to Big Little Lies but not as good. I rounded it up because of how twisted it is.

[Hannah]

I read The Word for World Is Forest by Ursula K. Le Guin, which I wanted to read anyway and happened to notice that it fit in for this prompt, so I never explored my TBR. Now, looking back on my read list, I can find a few recommendations that haven't been mentioned yet:

In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado is one of the best books I've read recently/possibly ever and works with the title alone. It's a memoir about the author's experience being abused in her longterm relationship with another woman, told through a very unique series of narrative tropes.

Ballad of the Whiskey Robber: A True Story of Bank Heists, Ice Hockey, Transylvanian Pelt Smuggling, Moonlighting Detectives, and Broken Hearts by Julian Rubinstein was quite outside of my comfort zone, but surprisingly fun and very engaging.

If you want a novel about letters that fits this prompt, I think it would be fun to read Ella Minnow Pea: A Novel in Letters by Mark Dunn. I would really only recommend this one if you're intrigued by the idea of a book that progressively loses the use of letters and engages in a lot of clever wordplay, otherwise I worry it might get a little irritating. But if you're into that kind of thing, it's very fun.

Finished Witch Please: Magical Musings on Life, Love, and Owning Your Power by Sonia Lazo

[Dea]

I was already planning to read Ponzinomics: The Untold Story of Multi-Level Marketing, and it's a perfect fit for this one. And it also has "Y," as a bonus.

,
by Jennifer Niven

The title in Portuguese has all the vowels.

[Jill]

What book are you reading and what books did you find that would fit the prompt?
I read Not Quite Dead Enough by Rex Stout
All the vowels are in the title

[Samantha]

I read Laura Lamont's Life in Pictures for this and it was fine. I think there is something about Emma Straub's writing that is just easy to read. It is entertaining but nothing all that memorable.

I would recommend:
Inside Out & Back Again - short and with lovely writing
Let's Pretend This Never Happened: A Mostly True Memoir - funny memoir
Did You Ever Have a Family - sad but not exhaustingly so.
You Bring the Distant Near
Where Did You Go Bernadette

My fill in for this prompt is:

[Pamela, Arciform Mod]

I really wanted to do all in the author's name (Rssamunde Pilcher or Angeline Boulle) but I needed a place to put this. I reserve the right to change my mind! Esp as I'm sure someone will add it to the Best of list

Sea of Tranquility by Emily St John Mandel

[Sherri]

I read The House at the Edge of Night. All five vowels are in the title.

[Laurel]

I read The Jane Austen Society by Natalie Jenner, which has all five vowels in the title. I really enjoyed this book, which would also work for #11, historical fiction genre, #23, set between 1900-1950, or #43, set in small town or rural area,

My favorite book that fits the prompt is Persuasion by Jane Austen.

[Ana]

I read by Carlos Ruiz Zafón ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ So far the best book i read this year.

[Stacey]

With a title this long, one would have thought the 'u' would definitely have made it in there: The Motion of Light in Water: Sex and Science Fiction Writing in the East Village. But instead, we find it lurking within the author's name: Samuel R. Delany. A terrific memoir of the author's early life and a great snapshot of NYC's Lower East Side, ca. early 1960's, that I really loved.

[Barbara]

I read The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All, an excellent novel by singer/songwriter/musician Josh Ritter

[Joanne]

I read There's Something About Sweetie by Sandhya Menon which has all the vowels in the title.

[Marie (UK)]

Lucinda Riley
The Moon Sister

[Rachel]

I read:
Burnt Shadows by Pakistani Kamila Shamsie is a sweeping epic work of historical fiction beginning in Nagasaki in 1945 when the horrors of the atomic bomb destroy all Hiroko Tanaka has known and loved. It then shifts to India then Pakistan during the time of the Partition. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Here is my review

[Guylian]

I read .

[Kylie]

Ed Sheeran: A Visual Journey Ed Sheeran

[Ashley✨]

I read The Island of Doctor Moreau by H.G. Wells. I liked this book more than I expected.

[NancyJ]

I used these two books for this prompt. I liked them both.

Agatha of Little Neon by Claire Louchette
The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy by Rachel Joyce

[Udari]

Beautiful World, Where Are You by Sally Rooney

[Pearl]

I read Soulmate Equation one day when I had nothing else handy. This is the best prompt for it. I wish I read Euphoria instead.
